New Living Translation (NLT)

Ezekiel 41
⁸ I saw that the Temple was built on a terrace, which provided a foundation for the side rooms. This terrace was 101/2 feet high.
⁹ The outer wall of the Temple’s side rooms was 83/4 feet thick. This left an open area between these side rooms
¹⁰ and the row of rooms along the outer wall of the inner courtyard. This open area was 35 feet wide, and it went all the way around the Temple.
¹¹ Two doors opened from the side rooms into the terrace yard, which was 83/4 feet wide. One door faced north and the other south.
¹² A large building stood on the west, facing the Temple courtyard. It was 1221/2 feet wide and 1571/2 feet long, and its walls were 83/4 feet thick.
¹³ Then the man measured the Temple, and it was 175 feet long. The courtyard around the building, including its walls, was an additional 175 feet in length.
¹⁴ The inner courtyard to the east of the Temple was also 175 feet wide.
¹⁵ The building to the west, including its two walls, was also 175 feet wide. The sanctuary, the inner room, and the entry room of the Temple
¹⁶ were all paneled with wood, as were the frames of the recessed windows. The inner walls of the Temple were paneled with wood above and below the windows.
¹⁷ The space above the door leading into the inner room, and its walls inside and out, were also paneled.
¹⁸ All the walls were decorated with carvings of cherubim, each with two faces, and there was a carving of a palm tree between each of the cherubim.
